OK...more....

1. I love all living things including spiders, snakes and other creepy crawlies. I'm not afraid to pick up spiders and carry them outside.

4. I absolutely hate guns and hunting.
5. I've never broken any bones
6. I love Christmas and what it stands for. I'm the first person in my building to put up lights and the last to take them down.
